The Copla Musical

T1703691731
Spend the evening with La Gitana, and be immersed in a passionate and political tale of identity and freedom. Glamorous, racy, fun and authentic; Spanish transvestite La Gitana escaped the dictatorship of Franco to become a variety star in America. She transformed and brought to life Copla songs for audiences, and yet struggled to merge her Spanish past with her American present.
